Theodore Roosevelt: An Exceedingly Rare 7/8" Trigate Coat-tail
Button from 1904. "Indiana's Choice," featuring T.R.,
Fairbanks, and Hanley. This is the plate example from the original
1896-1972 Hake book (pg. 64 no. 185), and the only example we can
ever recall encountering. Condition is choice- the sepia looks a
little faded but, in our opinion, this is "as made," as it is not
unusual to find mint condition sepia buttons of this general style
with uneven tone. From the collection of Kenneth Broyles.
